    Registry changes for changing hardware acceleration?

    Hi there. At work we use an in-house OpenGL program for displaying the geometry of some structural analysis models (mainly Pipe/tubular member)structures. With our newer Nvidia cards, up to G4-Ti4200, the graphics kinda stink, with the intersection lines between two pipes being very edgy...

    Software that changes your voice in realtime.

    Creative's Liveware that comes with the SB Live cards can change the sound (from anything, like an MP3 or in your case, a microphone) in real-time. Liveware 3.0 comes with lots of effects you can apply to your mic, like Pitch Shift (male to female effect or vice versa) and 'alien', 'chipmunk'...

    PAL8045 + Papst fan => 'No CPU fan' warning at POST

    Excellent! I thought the problem was much more simple than a faulty BIOS, so I didn't even think to check for that, hehe... Thanks a lot!

    PAL8045 + Papst fan => 'No CPU fan' warning at POST

    As the title says, I just installed an Alpha 8045 heatsink with a 80mm Papst fan on my MSI-KT266A Pro2. The Papst fan only has 2 wires, so there is no RPM monitoring. And now, every time I boot the machine, the BIOS freaks out and bugs me about a missing CPU fan. It continues booting after I...

    I can't give you much solid advice here, except that I just put together my new system with a Thermaltake Volcano 6CU Copper + Arctic Silver paste. And I am currently shopping for replacement alternatives! I dunno... the thing just wasn't anywhere near as low-noise as I expected, plus my...

    MSN Internet access is - gasp! - actually pretty good?

    The GoingPlatinium dial-in ISP just pre-launched in the US (powered by UUNet), at $9.95/month and later a possible full monthly rebate. I am not from the US myself, so I will have to wait a bit longer :( It won't beat my cable modem anyway, hehe. But the US members that are using it now says...

    Win NT File Size Problem. DOH!!!

    Hi there, I have encountered a really annoying (and critical!) problem at work. I am doing some structural analysis work with ANSYS, using NT4.0 SP6. The analysis I am trying to run is quite large, and some very large result files are created. So, to my horror, I discover that NT has a...
